Chamberlain’s Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) curriculum is designed to advance students’ ability to retain and apply essential knowledge. The focus is on conceptual learning, giving students the skills to translate theory into practice.

Hands-on experience in both the Chamberlain SIMCARE CENTER™ and the on-site clinical setting allow nursing students to work side-by-side with faculty, mentors, peers, and experienced professional nurses as they refine their direct patient-care nursing skills.

The BSN degree program consists of a minimum of 122 credit hours: 56 credit hours in liberal arts and sciences and 66 credit hours in nursing.

BSN Concentration in Serving Hispanic Communities

Chamberlain College of Nursing’s Phoenix campus offers a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) Concentration in Serving Hispanic Communities to meet the needs of this growing segment of the U.S. population.

The concentration has an increased focus on developing students’ cultural competency through coursework, clinical immersions and language acquisition resources to prepare graduates to meet the needs of Hispanic individuals, families and communities.

The number of total credit hours for completion of the BSN Concentration in Serving Hispanic Communities is equal to the number required to complete the BSN degree program.

BSN Concentration Highlights

Information about Hispanic culture is incorporated into coursework to reinforce cultural understanding. Courses in the concentration include Cross Cultural Communication and Contemporary Hispanic American History.

Students will gain experience communicating and connecting with Hispanic communities during clinical experiences. In 10 clinical nursing courses, students will engage with Hispanic patients in the clinical setting for a minimum of 25% of their experiential learning hours.

Students are encouraged to join the local chapter of the National Association of Hispanic Nurses (NAHN) for networking and mentorship opportunities.

Completion of Spanish language pre- and post-proficiency exams are required for students enrolled in the Concentration, but scores will not be used to determine student progression in the BSN degree program.

Students will be provided access to self-paced, non-credit Medical Spanish language acquisition modules to prepare to interact with Hispanic patients and their families.

Students who successfully complete the Concentration and all Medical Spanish Modules may qualify to sit for the National Certification for Bilingual Healthcare Providers (NCBHP) examination. Students are not penalized if unable to advance through the Medical Spanish Modules or pass the certifying examination and will complete the BSN degree program if all other requirements are met.

SimCare Center™

Life-Like Reactions

Patient simulators react much like a live patient would— they have vital signs, they voice discomfort, and can blink, sweat or bleed. The high-tech simulators are controlled remotely by instructors, who can alter the mannequin’s physical and verbal responses. The labs provide a safe environment for students to advance their knowledge, hone their nursing skills and learn from their mistakes.

Labs Replicate the Hospital Setting

From privacy curtain areas to scrub sinks to hospital beds, Chamberlain’s SIMCARE CENTER™ facilities closely replicate hospital and clinical settings. As part of Chamberlain’s commitment to academic excellence, the SIMCARE CENTER™ is also supported by a resource center that helps with the development of complex skills like medication calculation.
